A springtime fling of star jasmine, white pear and yellow plums. There is a salt bath mineral note, crushed chalk and all manner of lemon and lime trees overloaded with hanging with fruit. The palate is fairly dry with a skerrick of tutti fruity nectar, but with that bracingly crisp finish we all know and love. A touch of fuzzy sage and raw almond on the finish. This is perky and uplifted and a wonderful wine to kick start a party. Drink with dancing music, corn chips and chunky guacamole.
